Light incident normally on a plane mirror attached to a galvanometer coil retraces backward as shown in the figure. A current in the coil produces a deflection of 3.5° of the mirror. What is the displacement of the reflected spot of light on a screen placed 1.5 m away? (tan 7 °=0.1228)
1. 15.0 cm
2. 18.4 cm
3. 21.2 cm
4. 12.5 cm
